COLUMBIA, S. C. Friday Morninu, September 30, 1870. Fair?. Agricultural fairs are of special im? portance to tho people of the South, whero tho change ia tho system of labor and its increasing cost have rendered it important to take advantage of any im? provement that may facilitate work in the fields. The application of machine? ry to agricultural operations hos been steadily increasing of late years, and is destined to ploy a still moro important part in our futuro agriculture. There is in general an opportunity of examining thcBo at agricultural fairs, and also the various fertilizers offered for balo, and tho different methods of cultivation, which no farmer eau afford to neglect. Even as sooial festivals agricultural fairs are to be highly prized for tho hearty aud innocent enjoyment by which they are attended, the exchange of kindly greetings, and the revival of old associa? tions and friendships. The Baltimore Sun speaking on this subject, remarks: "Thero oanuot bo a moro suggestive contrast presentod than that of the cultivators of onr own soil as? sembled at those triumphs of peaceful industry, andsthe unfortunate laborers ? Of Europe, arrayed against each other ?? with the destructive implements of war, and celebrating victories which involve . generalpovertyand agricultural ruin." RAISING CAIN-CAIN'S EFFIGY CAR? BI ED ON HIGH AND BURNT.-About 8 o'clock last night a large number of co? lored men, headed by a drum corps, marched through some of tho principal streets, bearing aloft an effigy of R. H. Cain. Above the head was a placard in? scribed "Cain, the Traitor." This dis? play seemed to delight the orowd very much. Finally the procession entered the Military Hall, tho orowd shouting and singing, "Down with tho Traitors, ap with the Flag," Ac. In the hall wero assembled about 500 colored mon, in? cluding the members of the procession. The effigy was placed against the plat? form, and the crowd amused themselves "by shaking their fists and sticks in its face, and asking it questions, such as: "Did you call that convention?" "How many more mortgages will you let the Democrats lift from your church?" "Will yon stand by your nominations?" After considerable confusion, H. H. Hunter was called to tho chair and W. H. Birney elected secretary. Speeches were delivered by Hunter, Taft and oth? ers. The speeches consisted in denun? ciations of Cain, the convention, and of .eulogies of tho IIurley-Bowen conven? tion. The speeches concluded, the line was reformed, tho effigy carried to the vicinity of Cain's house, where it was burned, amid the firing of rockets and the shouts of the crowd. [Charleston News. A SOOTH CAROLINA SENATOR IN TROU? BLE.-Most of our readers have, no doubt, seen tho Quo team which Arnim, the carpet-bag Senator from tho Edge field District, is io tho habit of driviug when he comes to Augusta. Ou yester? day, it appears, that the Legislator and his horao got into trouble whilo on tho rebellious soil of Georgia. It seems that the horse and buggy were standing in front of the Globe Hotel, in charge of a negro, when the Deputy City Sheriff, Mr. Levy, approached tho owner, who stood on tho pavement a few feet from his proper ty. The officer informed the honorable carpet-bagger that a party in this city, to whom he owed money, had sued out an attachment against his horse, aud that either the money or the animal must come immediately. Arnim parleyed for a few miuules, and while doing so, gave his negro boy a signal to drive back to Hamburg. Tho driver ?obeyed, and tho horse's head being turned up Jackson street, drove rapidly to Ellis street and then went down that street, making for the Savannah River. As soon as the Sheriff saw tho move, however, ho ran down Broad street at full speed, and headod the horse on Cen? tre street, a short distance from tho bridge. The officer at once took pos? session, and tho Senator waa forced to pay up.-Augusta Chronicle and Sent i ntl. HORRIBLE ACCIDENT.-Yesterday morn? ing, nbout ll o'clock, a colored mau named Bristol Mitchell, employed by the Marine River Phosphate Mining and Manufacturing Company, iu loading phosphate rook from tho North Atlantic wharf, became ontaugled in tho rope of tho steam hoisting engine. Ho was im? mediately drawn over tho drum aud his head was crushed between tho couuect iug rod and tho boiler, killing him in? stantly. He had been in tho employ of tho company only ono day. A jury of inquest was summoned by Coroner Whiting, who rendered a verdict of ac? cidental death. No blame whatever is attached to tho engineer. Bristol was a good mau aud a faithful worker.

Why Not Attack Parle-Will Parla Sacked!-King -William's First ?Army Order." The following lotter, whiob appears in tho New York Ijfaening Post, derives its ohief interest frpm the faot thai' it WOB written by FranoiB Lieber, L L. DM a Prussian by birth, and in early lifo a soldier in the army of his country at the time when the first Napoleon waged warfare against it. Dr. Lieber enjoys tho reputation of being one of tho most distinguished publicists in the world: Persons, and of course some journals, begin to express the opinion that attack? ing Paris is barbarous and little less than a crime against humanity. Why, then, was Paris fortified? Why is auy place fortified? Because people think that Borne day en enemy may march upon it, and that it must not bo open to hostile occupation without duo deronco. This was especially the case with Paris. Paris is considered as Franoe intensifi? ed; it had been occupied in 1814 and 1815; M. Thiers resolved to fortify it; many French people raised their voices agaiust this exposure of the capital, but they were not listened to; and now, when au army, challenged to come out and war with France, victoriously ap? proaches this fortified city, aery is heard: Do not touch our precious Paris! Did not tho French bombard even Borne, and that in a most unjustifiable war? If tho Fronch tremble so much at the idea cf a bombardment of Paris, the com? plete remedy is at band-surrender it. It is known from 1815 what orderly victors tho Prussians aro. The ParaisianB ought to remember that their lives and property are en? dangered by foes very different from the manly, cultivated German soldier. The Beds, the sanseuloltfs, led by sansculottes a gants glacis. These are the barbarians who threaten French sooiety, and there would be nothing surprising in it if, be? fore ten days or a fortnight has elapsed, wo should hear that a committee of throe, with tho tri-color sash, had gono to tho Prussian headquarters to imploro protection against tho Socialists, who cried at their symposia, Vive Jesus Christ et Robespierre. Prussians would not saok Paris, oven should they enter it scaling and fighting. The other German troops would not be worse. Tho whole conduct of tho Gor? man army so far guarantees it, tho army orders presage it. I translate the very first general army order issued by the royal commander of the great army on tho 8th of last month, and en passant, ask tho reader to com? paro it with Gen. Bonaparte's first pro? clamation to tho French citizen soldiers iu Italy, ia which he tolls them that he is going to lead them into a country whero they will find booty to their heart's content. This is a verbal translation of tho King's order: AHM Y ORDEHS. "Soldiers: Tho pursuit of tho enemy, repulsed by bloody contests, has held a largo proportion of our army over tho frontier. Several corps will step this day on ?tho French soil. I expect that the discipline, by which you have dis? tinguished yourselves so far, will be ob? served especially on hostilo ground. We do not war with tho peaceable inhabi? tants of tho country; on the contrary, it is the duty of every honor-loving soldier to protect pri? vate property and not to suffer that the good name of our army be sullied even by a few instances of law? lessness. I roly on tho good spirit per? vading the army, but also on tho severi? ty and circumspection of all command? ers. WILLIAM. "Headquarters Homberg (in Alsatio.) "Augusts, 1870." The straightforward uimplicity and severity cannot bo overlooked. There is no flattery; no affectation; it is plain and soldierly morality, aud tho whole meant in good earnest. Tho writer knows Prussian discipline in conquered countries from personal experience in tho army. Commend tho New York platform for a good broad swing to it that is comfort? able and roomy. It sympathizes with Frauce, Cuba and Leland; it is for united Germany; it is for free, cheap law and equal taxes. Bully for that! It re? minds ouo of tho China doctor's specific for delirium tremens. Ho had thirty specifics for all tho known diseases ex? cept delirium tremens, so ho inado a compound of all his remedies on tho suggestion that some ono of them would be auro to cure it. If tho Democracy dou't oarfy Now York by a huudred thousand majority thero is uo virtuo in platforms. RAILROAD ACCIDENT.-Coroner Whit? ing held an inquest yesterday on the body of an uukuowu colored man, who was ruu over by tho down passenger train of the South Carolina Railroad, when eleven miles from tho city. Ho was lying drunk between tho track, and was not discovered in timo to prevent tho catastrophe. A bottlo of whiskey was fouud on his person. Tho testimony fully exonerated tho officers of the road, aud attributed tho death to accident. j Charleston News.
